So, my (shared) server went down today, and my WordPress database seems to have gotten corrupted. Only reason I know is I’ve secretly got WP_DEBUG_LOG enabled at all times. Kept getting a “Please DISCARD the tablespace before IMPORT” while it was apparently trying to recreate a table that got orphaned. Restored a backup, tried to manually recreate two smallish posts, lost a single webmention. 🤷

I’ve been off Twitter for, like, nine or ten months. And, I really don’t like email “newsletters.” (RSS is wonderful, though, as is HTML—microformatted HTML.)
I’ve been off Twitter for about four months now (!), don’t track analytics for the site, and don’t have comments, so I’m completely blind to how many folks actually follow along[.] Would you “subscribe” to receive the posts in your inbox, or is RSS enough?

Just like Webmention ≠ “aggregating Twitter likes on your site,” IndieAuth ≠ RelMeAuth.
The biggest confusion seems to be conflating IndieAuth and IndieAuth.com.
Hey, I’ve been showing WordPress pages on a totally different site all this time, too! (How? PHP and MySQL.)
Just set up a #micropub media endpoint, and figured out how to get Indigenous to always use it. Up next: set up the back end so that a single photo uploaded thru a Micropub post also becomes that post’s Featured Image.

Nothing in this world is certain, except the death of social media sites and taxes.

This. Webmention = an improved Pingback. Everything else requires microformats, third-party services, or a fair bit of attention to actually get right—which is probably okay.
These are all fantastic things that are built on top of Webmention but that I often feel are conflated with Webmention.
Looks like Yarns is getting syndicated URLs wrong, and shows all u-syndication URLs on an h-feed page rather than just the one(s) for a specific h-entry.
Just added support for syndication targets—well, for replies and bookmarks only—to my “social reader.”
